Sprocket Posted July 26 #2 Share Posted July 26 App has been kind of wonky lately but if you can order through there you will get an email saying they have been ordered and another one when they’re sent about 10-14 days before your cruise. If the app doesn’t work you can order them through the web based version online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you show as green lane then they will be shipped otherwise call Princess and follow the links to Ocean Ready Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They mail them as included with either the Plus package or the Premium package. When did this become a Suite perk? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just looked at the full suite perks and mailing medallions is not one of them. Even with a suite you would need a package to get free delivery. Same goes for room service and Ocean Now charges Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treasure Hunter Posted July 27 #6 Share Posted July 27 We always sail in suites. We never get a package ( don’t drink). Everyone used to get them mailed to their home free. Now unless you have a package they charge $10 pp to get them mailed. Not a suite perk even though I think it should be considering the price of suites. We pay to get them mailed because it’s one less thing to think about at boarding but many people don’t want to pay and ( picking them up at the port) and wait the extra five minutes to go through the blue lane instead of the green. You arrange to get them on the App when you do your checking info. It’s very tedious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For those who do not have to pay for Medallion shipping, you still need to order it thru the APP or calling if you do not have the APP. When you order your Medallion, you will select pick up at port or mail to an address. I believe if you will be charged, it is charged when the Medallion has shipped, about a few weeks before sailing. Where did you see being in a suite entitles you to complimentary shipping of your Medallion? Edited July 27 by wallyj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Rick&Jeannie Posted July 28 #9 Share Posted July 28 Even if you have Plus or Premier, you *still* have to go through the motions of "ordering" the medallion(s). If you don't (as @wallyj says) it will default to "pick up at the pier". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While it is *technically* possible for medallions to be re-programmed...the batteries very often will not even last for a longer B2B sailing. Many people (myself included) have had to go to guest services to get a new one after the battery died. I even had one die before I could even get *on* the ship on embarkation day! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is good to know as we are flying out 3 days before the cruise as we're flying into Australia. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
